I’m so confused took a bread making class and there was no rolling, punching, kneading, scoring of bread! Classes need format and a description prior to the events. $90/ea for the chef to bring bought bread and have participants make grilled cheese.

Response from the owner · a month ago

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the class didn’t meet your expectations, and we understand your frustration given the price of the class. Our goal is always for our class descriptions to clearly communicate what participants will be learning and doing, and we’re sorry that this class did not provide the hands-on bread-making experience you expected. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will be reviewing all class descriptions and formats with our chef instructor to make sure the experience is more clearly communicated to future students. Our Store Manager will also be reaching out to you directly to follow up on your experience. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback, as it helps us improve our cooking classes moving forward.

Build your registry with In The Kitchen! My fiancé and I were very excited to learn that In The Kitchen offers registry services. We booked an appointment to create our wedding registry and it was such a delightful time. Haverly led us through the whole store and gave us so much information that helped us choose products that would best support our cooking and lifestyle. The store has a wide range of everything you could need and I absolutely recommend this service.

For gourmet cooks and novice. You can up your game here. Staff knowledgeable and helpful. Prices are definitely fair for the high-end offerings. If you like ATK I find a lot of their recommended gadgets here too. Been coming for years.

Checked their web page. Said "open" . No mention of being closed. Drove 45 minutes from suburbs paid $20 to park. Walk 2 blocks. Had 10 knives we wanted sharpened. Sign on door says "closed for inventory." "Sorry" If you can't keep accurate hours on your web page page which is a minimal expectation, you don't deserve anyone's business. This is ridiculous. 1.5 hrs and $20 for nothing. And with this ridiculous bike lane screwing up the entire strip we won't be back. Its nuts here

Response from the owner · 9 months ago

Hi Gary, we’re truly sorry for the frustration and inconvenience this caused — especially after such a long drive, parking expense, and the planning on your part. We completely understand why this experience was upsetting, and you’re right to expect our hours to be accurate online. Closing for inventory is something we do very infrequently, and we regret that this closure was not clearly reflected everywhere it should have been. That’s on us, and we’re actively reviewing our processes to ensure this doesn’t happen again. We would really appreciate the opportunity to make this right. Please email us directly at [email protected], and we’d be happy to personally follow up with you. Again, our deepest and most sincere apologies.

Store is an odd middle ground. It has decent selection but seems lost between being for a premium focused home cook and a more general kitchen store. For better prices, and higher quality items, head over to penn fixture and supply

Response from the owner · 10 months ago

Hi Spencer, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re always striving to improve, and hearing different perspectives helps us to do just that! Our goal at In The Kitchen is to offer a specially curated selection of quality cookware, cutlery, and kitchen essentials for everyone who spends time in a kitchen, from passionate home cooks to culinary professionals. In addition to our essentials, we like to also offer a range of foodie-focused items for those who love exploring new flavors, ingredients, and culinary trends. We’re sorry to hear that our mix felt unclear during your visit, and we’ll absolutely keep your comments in mind as we continue refining our assortment and in-store experience. We appreciate you giving us a try, and we’d love the opportunity to help you find exactly what you’re looking for in the future.

Very nice kitchen store, they have high end items as well as basic kitchen items. The store was very busy on a Saturday afternoon. They have lots of interesting kitchen gadgets that I have never seen before. Prices did seem a little bit high on some of the items though. Seemed like some things that you could get at the dollar store were selling for 10x the price. But if you are looking for high end pieces, this seems like the place to go and has so many options!

Response from the owner · a year ago

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring our store and discovering some new gadgets you hadn’t seen before. The weekends are some of the busiest times in the Strip, so we appreciate you stopping in to visit us! We completely understand your note on pricing. Some of the items we carry may look similar to what you might find at a dollar store, but the difference often comes down to the quality of materials, how the product is made, and how long it will last. We spend a lot of time reviewing and selecting items that we know will truly work well for our customers, whether you’re a home cook or a professional chef. We also strive to keep a balance of good, better, best in our selection, which is why you’ll see both entry-level basics and investment-worthy pieces throughout the store. Our team is always happy to help explain the differences between products and guide you to the option that makes the most sense for your needs. As a small, independent business, the education and personalized assistance our staff provides is something you won’t find at a discount or big-box store. This level of care is what sets us apart, and while some prices may be higher, our hope is that the knowledge, guidance, and long-term value of your purchase make it worthwhile. We really appreciate your visit and your perspective, it helps us continue to improve and educate. We hope you’ll stop by again soon to discover even more kitchen inspiration!
